Wait…someone ELSE is plotting to kill one of the galaxy’s most infamous gangsters? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! When you’re JABBA THE HUTT, you make a lot of enemies…and sometimes, they’re even under your employ! MAX REBO and the band have their own plans on how to deal with a mobster like Jabba… This issue bookends our JABBA’S PALACE one-shot and leads directly into the RETURN OF THE JEDI film!

Now… a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… Star Wars: Return of the Jedi – Max Rebo, The Max Rebo Band. With the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire locked in a civil war for control of the galaxy, criminals, scoundrels, and gangsters find new ways to profit from the chaos. Chief among these is the crime lord JABBA THE HUTT, who rules over a criminal empire based on the Outer Rim planet of TATOOINE. From his palace, Jabba commands his organization of thugs, thieves and bounty hunters by appealing to their greed – and taking advantage of their fear…
